2011-shimano-xtr-component-weights-cassette

I posted a couple of items’ weights the other day, but here’s the whole enchilada. All 2011 XTR components weighed individually.  I haven’t added it all up, but Shimano’s folk said the entire group comes in about 70g heavier than SRAM’s XX, mainly due to the cassette (above). This weight compares just parts available from both groups, but XTR also has pedal and wheels in the group, and when you add all of those up, the new group is substantially lighter than the prior 9700 series XTR.

Shown above is the 11-34 cassette at 254g. There’s also an 11-36, and the unofficial word is that there’ll be a 32T version offered in the future. Without further ado, jump on past the break to see the real weights of every piece…

Two wheelsets are available, Race and Trail, which follows in the motif of the new XTR. A full breakdown of the differences in the parts and technologies will be done separately. Shown above is the Race Front with 15mm thru axle: 690g.

2011-shimano-xtr-component-weights-pt1-021

XTR Race Double 42/30T Crankset: 634g (there’s also a 40/28 and 38/26 available, and the triple, but those weren’t available to weigh. We have the triple and the bottom bracket on our bike now, but it’ll be a bit before we have the chance to pull them off and weigh them separately. A 44T big ring for the doubles will be available at the pro level, but otherwise they keep a 12T difference between the two rings)

To check the claimed weights, take a peep at our original post about the new XTR component group.
